........hate to be a dissenter.........but I really didn't enjoy that vid........
the shooter (the devil?) didn't seem to me in harmony with what I'd regard as the sensible - pleasurable even - way to ride in a group.....
It felt as if he wanted to be / considered himself faster than everyone else, always seeming to want to overtake, pressure the rider in front, always agitating to hustle. Numerous sequences where, riding unfeasibly close (& too close for me), he clearly wasn't going to be able to pass, but whereas the guy in front was moving swiftly and relatively smoothly, the shooter seemed to be twitching and leaning this way and that......feeling v.unstable. It seemed ill judged & too frenzied to be fun.....maybe his pals are used to that sort of behaviour, - but we didn't see any footage of anyone else at-it in anything like that way............
No offence intended, maybe I'm just old & slow, but glad I wasn't in on that one.....
.........Jiff.
Don't think the rider was Twin devil, he rides a TDM. Don't think that bike was a 900.
See what you mean though.

Twin devil rides a Black 900. He's the leftmost bike in the lineup at 0.30 secs.
The camera bike has a very small screen and hand-guards that only attach at the inner end. KTM?
I think the rider might be a bit preoccupied with the filming, that might have compromised his riding style?

The majority of the vid was I think, shot by the SV rider with about a minutes worth of footage from a TDM and a Beemer, the main rider in my opinion is reminiscent of a Scud missile that will suddenly deviate from its course, whether this was caused by impatience or a desire to get close up footage is debatable, various overtakes were unplanned and with little concern of the person being passed, not a rider I would be happy to ride with on this showing.
Saying that the views etc were superb and does do justice to the scenery, summer is a long way off at the moment.
For a challenging summer try the

I need time to find the right words
It`s not forbidden to have a different opinion
Mick is right...it`s not always the Devil...most of the time it`s DirtyLobo on his Suzuki V-Strom 1000...I don`t like it when he turns his head to the side, but he wants to show the rider in front of him ...these movements make me seasick
They had three different cams on different bikes.
I am of the same opinion about the distances between the riders, but they know each other very well and normally they ride like a water ballet totally synchronous.
This year they had two new riders and that`s why it looks not harmonious.
Now I hope my english is not crazy and every question has been answered
